That’s just cold
Here I am, and here’s another cozy. But the break made a difference. Or maybe this is just better than the last few I read.
Where I Join Everyone Else in Discovering C.S. Harris
Alright, so I completely forgot to review this book when I read it, so you’ll have to forgive me if I’m a little fuzzy on some of the details at this point.

But it isn’t […]

If you want to start at the beginning, the first book is Rosemary and Rue. If you’re not entirely caught up, proceed at your own risk. When the biggest of October “Toby” Daye’s worries is whether she’s going to be forced to sing karaoke during her bachelorette party, it’s safe to say that things are so uncharacteristically […]
